Islamabad: America’s National Intelligence director Dennis C Blair is set to arrive in Islamabad to kickstart discussions on a Pak-US strategic dialogue.
Dennis will hold meetings with top Pakistani officials, including Inter-Services Intelligence director General Shuja Pasha.
The Daily Times quoted diplomatic sources as saying that several top US officials are expected to visit Islamabad before the March 24 deadline for the dialogue between both countries.
During the strategic dialogue in 2008, both sides had discussed regional and international issues of common interest.
Washington and Islamabad have agreed to co-operate in the fields of education, science and technology, with both sides committing to holding dialogues on energy and education.
Pakistan Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani chaired a high-level meeting on Saturday to develop a “comprehensive, coherent and well-coordinated approach” for the forthcoming Pak-US strategic dialogue.
